OT: Raw pets/Vitamix to grind raw bones

[Guest guest]

What about one of those old types that my grams and mom used to use to make

hamburger? It's the type that attaches with a screw to the countertop or

breadboard and you just turn the arm while feeding the meat down from the top.

They were always silver with a wooden part on the handle. Meat grinders is what

they called them!

 

Mom used to grind bologna and dill pickles to mix with mayo and make sandwich

spread. You can find these machines in most any second hand store. They are

manual, ohmygosh, you would have to do the turning of the handle yourself, but

they work.

If you're going to be doing lots of bones over a long period of time,

I saw a suggestion on one of the raw pet boards: put a garbage

disposal into a table. The meat that went through the disposal then

fell into a bowl set underneath.

 

My Golden Retriever has been 100% raw for five years and we haven't

had any problems with big chunks or bones.

One grinder that's often recommended on barf lists

is from http://www.northerntool.com/

under a 100.00 too.

Cool, thanks, Tom. Being interested in biologically appropriate

food in general, I know a lot of raw vegans also feed their pets raw

meat and I was having trouble finding certain information, so I

thought some members on this list would be a possible starting

point/resource, and I appreciate all the responses. Just in case

others didn't see the post from the moderator, we were asked to

discontinue this discussion.

 

Thanks again,

 

Laurie
